CURRENT MISSION

Get as much pleasure out of life as I can, there's no reason life should be boring!

ABOUT ME

I'm Yoshi and I love life! I try to get as much happiness out of each day as I can whether it's enjoying the sunset or dancing all night long. I used to be an introverted nerd obsessed with Harry Potter when I was a kid so I'm trying to break out of my shell and connect with as many people as I can. I'm always smiling and I have a really optimistic outlook on life.

I love having random adventures and exploring new cities. I think sites like Couchsurfing and AirBnB are great because you get to have a much more intimate experience of a new place.

I left my job as a paralegal this year to focus on my clothing line, Fringe & Epaulette (www.fandecouture.com)

I'm originally from Jamaica and I've lived in NYC for most of my life. 2016 is the first year I've travelled outside the U.S in years. I'll be traveling through Europe with my boyfriend from Oct 2016-April 2017.
